Man loves liberty, even if he does not know that he loves it. He is driven by it and flees from where it does not exist.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it.
Listen, when you take my liberty away, you've taken away more-something more precious than life. I mean, what good is a life without liberty? Huh? None.
If we really want liberty - if we really want liberty - then we need to go out and get it, we need to take it, because nobody is going to give it to us. And we need to do it now.
The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.
Liberty means responsibility. That's why most men dread it.
Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it.
Liberty is the condition of duty, the guardian of conscience. It grows as conscience grows. The domains of both grow together. Liberty is safety from all hindrances, even sin. So that Liberty ends by being Free Will.
One of the qualities of liberty is that, as long as it is being striven after, it goes on expanding. Therefore, the man who stands in the midst of the struggle and says, 'I have it,' merely shows by doing so that he has just lost it.
Free people, remember this maxim: we may acquire liberty, but it is never recovered if it is once lost.
Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.
